Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy

I have a weird brain. The plot was close to impenetrable, but the filmic elements? I got every one.

Don't Be Afraid of the Dark

Look, I never saw the original, so don't know how it compares. This one has (slow, scary, creepy) atmosphere a plenty.

Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol

Crawling up the tallest building in the world does in fact look terrifying (CGI notwithstanding).

Numb3rs: Season 3

I like this show (especially that last doozy of an episode). I don't like that it would barely be possible without the Patriot Act.

Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame

Inscrutable? Yes, the script is. No, the action and the acting aren't.

Doctor Who: Season 10

Finally! At the very end of Season 10, after 69 serials, a real story without plastic monsters (well, ok, plastic maggots). Plus, it's funny and poignant and has a moral ending.

Gimme Shelter

I wouldn't say a thing about kids these days until you watch this classic.

Fright Night

Colin Farrell was definitely born to play a vampire.

Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara

This is The Indian Hangover, down to the stunningly handsome leading man. (What are they, twins?)

Mongol

Despite this rather romantic view of the great Khan, I'd rather not forget that he slaughtered millions and millions of people.
